How will this enhance their ability to surrender faster?

This isn't the old France anymore.

As Paris is 3600 miles from New York and 5700 miles from Los Angeles, and this missile has an 8000 mile range, I think it's pretty clear they could hit anywhere in America they wanted to. Additionally, it's fitted for their boomers.

... that's a max. range of 8,000 KILOMETERS (just about 5,000 miles). Gotta watch that Metric System (unless you work for NASA, then feet & meters are interchangeable).

“Jeez. Has most everyone been asleep for the last 3 months? Last I remember an election was held in France and won by a pro-American candidate who wasn’t afraid to label the rioting scum as such in France’s borders.
And yet, still massive disdain from too many of us.”

I guess some people can’t learn more than one trick.

What can I say ? C’est la vie...
